Ole Miss rising, Georgia falling in college football Re-Rank 1-134

Georgia is down, down, down in this week’s USA TODAY Sports NCAA Re-Rank 1-134 while Alabama and Mississippi climb the rankings after a consequential Saturday in the SEC.

The Bulldogs are down 10 spots to No. 13 after losing 28-10 to the Rebels, who move up five to No. 12. The Crimson Tide are also up five to No. 10 following a 42-13 win at LSU.

It’s not hard to put Georgia behind this pair. The Bulldogs lost to both teams, both times on the road. Last month’s win against Texas helps keep Georgia one spot ahead of another two-loss SEC team in No. 13 Texas A&M.

There’s still plenty of SEC representation near the top of the rankings. No. 1 Oregon and No. 2 Ohio State continue to lead the way, followed by the No. 3 Longhorns, No. 4 Penn State and No. 5 Tennessee. Next comes No. 6 Notre Dame, No. 7 Indiana and No. 8 Brigham Young.

Another contender dropping in this week’s re-rank is No. 9 Miami. The Hurricanes were able to escape against California, Virginia Tech, Louisville and Duke but ran out of magic in a 28-23 loss to Georgia Tech. Miami remains the highest-ranked team in the ACC, a couple steps ahead of No. 11 SMU.

Joining Miami in falling down the 1-134 are No. 22 Iowa State (down 10), No. 25 LSU (down 11), No. 35 Iowa (down 10) and No. 57 Florida (down 12).

Those moving up include No. 24 Colorado (up 10), No. 30 Georgia Tech (up 14) and No. 84 UCLA (up 16).
